Chapter 3
---Hiei's POV---
Why did I feel obligated to watch after the onna. I knew she was no threat to Yukina, and yet I felt like it was my fault she was thrown. NO it is not my fault the onna is too stupid not to ask questions that will get her in trouble. I would not feel responsible.
"Hiei?" a voice said from behind.
"Yes, Yukina?" I replied automatically.
"Thank you, for saving Tenshi. She was my best friend growing up. She was only trying to find some of the answers that I myself am seeking. I truly wish to find my brother. I believe he is alive… somewhere," she trailed off softly.
"I believe it is possible," I said and then vanished from her sight.
I knew that she had needed to hear that, and while I dearly love my sister it is better for her not to know who I am. For if it is known then it will also be known that she is my weakness and then she will be in constant danger. I would not be able to stand for that. If Tenshi was Yukina's best friend, then maybe I am glad I saved her. It made Yukina smile. I would do anything to make her smile. That is why I haven't told her. If I did it would make her cry, she deserves better than me.
I quickly flitted out of the area so no one would be able to sense this newest weakness in me.
---Tenshi's POV---
It was so good to see Yukina again. I would love to be able to tell her that I know who her brother is, but if I did that then she would want to know, and I can't tell her for fear of my very life. But it would make her so happy to know her brother is here. He did save me, and he could have destroyed the village, but he didn't. In fact he put flowers on Hina's grave. He loves his mother even if he never knew her. It is sad really that he only knows his sister, and has never had a real family. Yukina and I did, well except for the fact that her brother was missing. But we both always knew we would find him someday. And then Yukina was gone. It had been a secret that I kept from her that I cried a gem for her dear brother everyday, but one that I knew I had to keep.
"Tenshi? Are you all right?" Yukina asked me.
"Yes, I'm fine," I said smiling.
Just then Kurama entered the room with Genkai. I smiled at him warmly. He seems to be the nicest of the group. Maybe I can speak to him later about Hiei and Yukina. Maybe Hiei was joking.
"What do you think about staying here Tenshi?" Kurama asked smiling.
"I would like that very much if it is not too much trouble for you Genkai," I replied bowing to the woman.
"I would not mind at all, I believe it would be a good way to ensure that Yukina does not get lonely up here all alone," she replied then walked out of the room.
"Tenshi, might I have a word with you?" Kurama asked.
"Of course," I replied.
"Wow Kurama you just keep taking everyone away for a private chat. By the way where did the shrimp go?" Yusuke asked.
"He left, I believe," Kurama answered and then gently took my arm and led me out of the room.
We walked down the hall into another room, and when we stopped Kurama smiled at me again. I smiled back wondering if he could read minds like Hiei could.
"How is it that you know our Yukina?" Kurama asked me.
"We grew up together. We are best friends," I replied.
"Ahh, and how did you know Hiei?" he asked.
"I saw him, at Hina's grave. I knew it had to be him, no male is ever on Koorime Island, especially placing flowers on a grave. And his eyes are just like Yukina's. Is he really as cold as he seems?" I asked.
"Well, that depends on a lot of things. Why do you ask?"
"He told me that if I told Yukina who he is he would kill me," I said trying not to shiver.
Kurama laughed, "That sounds like Hiei. Don't worry, he wouldn't kill you, but I do suggest that you not mention Yukina's relation to Hiei. I believe there are some repercussions that he would have to face considering that finding her is the reason he got the Jagan implanted in the first place."
"Does he care for her?" I asked worried about my friend.
"Watch them and you will find your answer. Now I must be going, but I will be back soon to see how you are doing here. Ja ne Tenshi," he said smiling at me once again.
"Ja ne Kurama," I replied.
Then he was gone.
---Kurama's POV---
Hmmm just as I suspected she had seen him at Hina's grave. There may be more to her story than we previously thought. It would most defiantly be in our best interest to keep a close eye on her and Yukina. I do not have a good feeling about this.
"We should leave. I would love a chance to see Shizuru, wouldn't you Yusuke?" I asked hinting that we should take this conversation to Kuwabara's
"Why would I want to do that?" he replied.
"Because I believe we could get some information about the case we just began," I said hoping that this time he would get it.
"What would Shizuru know about anything, and we don't have a new case," Yusuke said.
I sighed. I was about to try again when Yusuke claimed that he wanted to play Kuwabara's new game which seemed to confuse Kuwabara, but we decided that we would head to Kuwabara's.
------Kuwabara's house------
I had been trying to get them to listen to me for about five minutes when Hiei burst into the room.
"Shut up and listen Bakas!"
Well that worked. I guess I won't complain since he got them to be quiet for the time being.
"We need to keep a sharp eye on Yukina and Tenshi. I am afraid that since Tenshi knows who Hiei is we may have some difficulty,"
"Hn, Koorime Island wants nothing more to do with either female, they are in no danger," Hiei said.
"But Tenshi was thrown off the island. They wanted her dead, and when they find out she is not…" I rationalized.
"They will not care. They did not come after me when I survived, they will leave them alone. They are in no danger," Hiei repeated.
I sighed, "Perhaps you are right Hiei, but I would still like for someone to check up on them in a few days."
"Hn," Hiei said.
"I will do it fox, but only because I want to see Yukina, plus I don't trust the oaf or the detective to do it and I believe you are in school in a few days it would be a week before you have time off," Hiei said in my mind.
I nodded, "Hiei, since it is a school day perhaps you will go check on them."
"Hn," and then he was gone again.
"I believe that settles it then Hiei will check up on the girls, now I must go I have homework to finish," I said and then left.
---Hiei's POV---
I would go check on them in a few days. I knew they would be fine. No one would be after a Koorime that was thrown off the island, especially if she was asking questions about me.
"Hiei?" a bubbly voice called me.
"What do you want Kato Onna?" I asked.
"I hear you will be checking up on the girls in a few days. Just make sure that things are going smoothly. We don't want Tenshi to feel like she doesn't belong here," she said making that baka cat face.
"Watashi Tanshin Demasu, Baka Kato Onna," I replied and left for my forest.
